The defender is departing Newcastle United this summer.
Newcastle United have confirmed that Steven Taylor will leave the club this summer, via their official website.
The 30-year-old will bring an end to a 14-year association with the club, having initially joined their academy in July 2002.
He made his debut 12 years ago against Real Mallorca in the UEFA Cup, making his Premier League bow against Bolton Wanderers three days later.
During his time a St James’ Park, he made 268 appearances for the Magpies, with his last coming in the 5-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur on the final day of the season.
His time in the North East has been an eventful one to say the least, as the club have both risen and fallen in that time. He has seen them both challenging for Champions League football, to being relegated to the Championship.
Here is a collection of pictures from his time at Newcastle United.
